I agree, many always start with the premise "hosting is hard", but maybe this was true 20 years ago, now hosting providers let you spin-up a server in a few clicks, have monitoring, alerts, automatic updates and more. The good part is that for 99.99% of the time, once you set-up a server it could keep on running without issues for many years.

I am not a sys-admin but I have used multiple hosting providers (shared, VPS, dedicated) and so far I never had a single server fail or suddenly stop working.

Because Google makes billions on selling ads on other sites through their DV360 / Google AdX products. Those ads need third-party cookies for targeting, otherwise the price drops by a factor 5.

Google also happens to make the browser with by far the largest market share. So they're not going to axe third-party cookies as long as it drops their revenue 5x.

I have seen multiple production systems, in multiple orgs, where "he monolith" provides somewhere in the region of 50-100 different things, has a pretty hefty footprint, and the only way to scale is to deploy more instances, then have systems in front of the array of monoliths sectioning off input to monolith-for-this-data (sharding, but on the input side, if that makes sense).

In at least SOME of these cases, the monolith would've been breakable-up into a smaller number of front-end micro-services, with a graph of micro-services behind "the thing you talk to", for a lesser total deployed footprint.

But, I suspect that it requires that "the monolith" has been growing for 10+ years, as a monolith.

A small but growing handful of my team hired last year are Canadian and waiting for COVID to abate before moving to the US. I myself moved to the US from Canada a decade ago. The brain drain is real.

If you're open to a move, good companies like the ones on this list will generally take care of healthcare to the extent that you won't need to worry about it much, but I still do miss the Canadian model where money generally didn't even enter into the equation. They'll usually take care of the immigration as well, and pay for the relocation. Highest income would be in the Bay Area, but consider if you want to own a home and the costs involved in that; you might find another area to be a better deal (I'm biased toward Pittsburgh). I personally found the Bay Area unworkable when I was looking before, mostly due to the fact that I had a family and wanted a home.

If you want to stay, your best bet would be to join a large multinational (Big N) and work at a Canadian office.
The survey was designed to help employers too - it's a large expense for them to interview, especially including indirect expenses.

How does it make a life better. Have you made the determination yourself? At least a significant number of people I know personally say otherwise and stick to dumb phones. They are well paid and it doesn't seem they are doing this to save money. So I don't think what you say is objective truth as you try to portray it.

If I leave out the bad parts then the rest is mostly what I need to use because of external demands or because of technology itself (ie. problems that only exist due to technology itself)

I don't need to be available on communicator. My team and my family expects me to be or I am marked as unhelpful. That wasn't a problem when there wasn't expectation to be constantly available.

There is a fair amount of evidence that corrections (negative evidence) do not actually improve the grammar of children who are still developing their language skills[1], for two reasons: adults are bad at correcting mistakes consistently, and children do not internalise corrections because language acquisition is not a conscious process.

In addition, even in early development children actually do appear to have pretty strong understanding of their native language's syntax[2] even if they cannot produce adult-level English. There are certain classes of mistakes they do not make (indicating they have internalised many more rules than may be apparent), and they can understand sentences which have grammar that they do not produce themselves (meaning that the level of output is not a good indication of their language development).

In theory, but in practice that is more of an accepted convention than a hard rule and dependent on the willingness of the other branches to rein it in. As the sole arbiter of what is and is not constitutional, including how to read and interpret existing language - they can do what they can get away with.

For instance, the text of the 10th Amendment makes it pretty clear that the original intent was that states were sovereign except for those powers explicitly carved out to the Federal gov't - "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tenth_Amendment_to_the_United_...]

Since WW2 (and a bit before that, including rulings 'reinterpreting' the commerce clause to cover things like growing wheat on your own land for your own consumption within an individual state to assist the Executive in enforcing price controls over the economy), the supreme court has ruled that essentially Congress can regulate anything it wants, city, state and federal level. This is how we've ended up with things like federal laws against possession of drugs (even in states that have them legalized), federal laws regulating firearms (including possession of ones that are legalized in the state), federal laws on computer crimes, etc.

If that isn't a radical shift and expansion of an amendment (without going through a further amendment process), I don't know what is.

Similarly on the defacto removal side - 4th amendment protections and Asset Forfeiture, which allows near arbitrary and impossible to stop seizure of 'suspicious' assets has been ruled constitutional on a very flimsy basis - essentially as long as it gets rubber stamped by the courts, good to go.
The urinal and gas station ones are right up the street from me and I don't visit either of those facilities anymore for that reason.

No, that's a constraint on infrastructure.

A taxi, robot or not, will never be able to meet peak demand... they'll be provisioned to meet 60-80% of peak demand and surge peak pricing. That's the key part of the robot car business model -- these companies want to soak you for using public infrastructure.

The Musk tunnel thing is totally different, it's an extreme version of Washington Beltway congestion pricing that charges you $3-60 to waste less time in express lanes.
I suspect part of that might be a reaction to us (as in the population in general) getting used to privacy violations. It takes a bit more drama to get our attention in a world where we are all willing to voluntarily carry a personal tracking device 24/7...
Things that can be and are simultaneously true:

* Large tech companies have too much power and influence on whose speech is heard.

* Depriving nazis and fascists of their recruitment and radicalization platforms is good.

There's not an easy way to reconcile these things with the system we have right now. The system is not neutral force that just exists outside of us though, and the rules it is built on are not immutable naturals laws.

DJB simply redefines his unsafe code as safe[0] and asserts that you're Using It Wrong:

--

In May 2005, Georgi Guninski published "64 bit qmail fun", three
vulnerabilities in qmail (CVE-2005-1513, CVE-2005-1514, CVE-2005-1515): http://www.guninski.com/where_do_you_want_billg_to_go_today_...

Surprisingly, we re-discovered these vulnerabilities during a recent
qmail audit; they have never been fixed because, as stated by qmail's
author Daniel J. Bernstein (in https://cr.yp.to/qmail/guarantee.html):

> This claim is denied. Nobody gives gigabytes of memory to each
qmail-smtpd process, so there is no problem with qmail's assumption
that allocated array lengths fit comfortably into 32 bits.

Indeed, the memory consumption of each qmail-smtpd process is severely
limited by default (by qmail-smtpd's startup script); for example, on
Debian 10 (the latest stable release), it is limited to roughly 7MB.

Unfortunately, we discovered that these vulnerabilities also affect
qmail-local, which is reachable remotely and is not memory-limited by
default (we investigated many qmail packages, and all of them limit
qmail-smtpd's memory, but none of them limits qmail-local's memory).

As a proof of concept, we developed a reliable, local and remote exploit
against Debian's qmail package in its default configuration. This proof
of concept requires 4GB of disk space and 8GB of memory, and allows an
attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands as any user, except root
(and a few system users who do not own their home directory). We will
publish our proof-of-concept exploit in the near future.

About our new discovery, Daniel J. Bernstein issues the following
statement:

> https://cr.yp.to/qmail/guarantee.html has for many years mentioned
qmail's assumption that allocated array lengths fit comfortably into
32 bits. I run each qmail service under softlimit -m12345678, and I
recommend the same for other installations.

I genuinely thought they meant that the site is client only (perhaps distributed outside of internet) and was curious how that works.

Therefore I took a delight in it, practising it continually, and grew very artful and expert in drawing people, even of superior knowledge, into concessions, the consequences of which they did not foresee, entangling them in difficulties out of which they could not extricate themselves, and so obtaining victories that neither myself nor my cause always deserved.

I continued this method some few years, but gradually left it, retaining only the habit of expressing myself in terms of modest diffidence; never using, when I advanced anything that may possibly be disputed, the words certainly, undoubtedly, or any others that give the air of positiveness to an opinion; but rather say, I conceive or apprehend a thing to be so and so; it appears to me, or I should think it so or so, for such and such reasons; or I imagine it to be so; or it is so, if I am not mistaken.

This habit, I believe, has been of great advantage to me when I have had occasion to inculcate my opinions and persuade men into measures that I have been from time to time engaged in promoting; and, as the chief ends of conversion are to inform or to be informed, to please or to persuade, I wish well-meaning, sensible men would not lessen their power of doing good by a positive, assuming manner, that seldom fails to disgust, tends to create opposition, and to defeat every one of those purpose for which speech was given to us, to wit, giving or receiving information or pleasure.

For, if you would inform, a positive and dogmatical manner in advancing your sentiments may provoke contradiction and prevent a candid attention. If you wish information and improvement from the knowledge of others, and yet, at the same time, express yourself as firmly fixed in your present opinions, modest, sensible men, who do not love disputation, will probably leave you undisturbed in the possession of your error.

I don't think the choice is between personally targeted ads and random ads though. There are middle options.

For example, if I search for "how to do a Subaru oil change" it's the perfect opportunity for the search engine to show me ads related to motor oil, Subarus, car maintenance videos, etc... If I opt in to sharing my location with the search engine they could also show me ads from local repair shops and car dealers.

Later on when I'm reading an article about dog training, I don't want to see ads about fixing my car, show me ads related to dogs. Use the context of the page for targeting.
It's harder to express complex grammars in combinator form.

Combinators excel best for relatively simply regular languages (eg., json, html, etc.).

It is a loop between the present and the past. You keep talking though about deciding to do things, and in this paradigm, there is no such thing. I am not 'deciding' to write this post, it is simply a consequence of the evolution of the universe and my life so far. I may feel like I am free to write it or not, but that is only an illusion.

Just as much, if you have a time machine, and go to the past, you will do exactly what you had already done in the past. It is not something you have a choice on, it is simply a consequence of the universe so far. The same would be true if you went to the future - all your future actions were decided the moment you were born, the moment the Earth formed, the moment the universe was formed. There is no choice.

It depends. We're developing our machine learning platform. We're a boutique consultancy and the opportunity cost is high as we're not affordable for most organizations.

However, the product is for ourselves and what it avoids us down stream is huge.

Machine learning projects are expensive and seldom succeed, and this is taxing on morale, retention, hiring, etc. and our platform addresses these problems.

In other words, spending time to make a wheel means it's time you're not spending moving forward, but a round wheel is much better than a square wheel and you make it up in no time when you have it.

What I don't understand, is how you can so meticulously keep notes about everything you learn? This is also my problem when I see the recent "hype" around Roam Research, Obsidian, Foam etc. I constantly come across and read stuff, in newspapers, on HN, on reddit, etc. How can you find the time to keep notes about this and keep it organized? And how do you make sure you aren't spending more time on organizing/formatting/maintaining your notes and making it look nice instead of actually reading doing productive stuff?
